“…Hoel and Schneider (1997) demonstrate this in the framework of a participation game where countries differ with respect to a`non-compliance cost' they incur as non-signatories. This cost is supposed to arise from various exogenous factors like, for example, social norms or trade sanctions (Elster 1989, Heister 1993, Barrett 1997b). Hoel and Schneider show that side payments result in a lower participation rate.…”

“…Conversely, sanctions can be regarded as the suspension of strategic links. For example, signatories to an IEA may restrict trade with non-signatories in order to deter free riding (Heister 1993, Barrett 1997b.

International environmental agreements typically strive for the solution of a common property resource dilemma. Since the sovereignty of states precludes external enforcement, international environmental agreements must be selfenforcing. Game theoretical models explain why rewards and punishments imposed through the environmental externality generally fail to enforce full cooperation. Therefore, environmental treaties incorporate provisions that enhance the incentives for participation such as transfers, sanctions and linkage to other negotiation topics in international politics. Moreover, interaction with markets and governments as well as the rules and procedures adopted in the negotiation process influence the design and the effectiveness of an international environmental agreement.
